The court’s syllabus:

An excerpt:

History repeats itself as non-tribal government once again threatens to take the buffalo from Native Americans, particularly Great Plains Indian Treaty Peoples. Indian leaders from the Fort Peck, Crow, and Fort Belknap Reservations have joined forces with wildlife advocates, sportsmen’s groups, and conservationists to oppose the bills.[9] This article discusses the arguments of both sides, and examines the validity of Montana’s proposed legislation vis-à-vis Indian inherent sovereignty and Treaty rights.
